Hopefully someone on this forum can post a pic of the old Acoustic 360. It was solid state, but I used one many years ago, and it had a huge tone. A few years back I saw Bryan Adams opening for the Rolling Stones, he was playing bass through a restored 360. I've read somewhere they've been re-introduced, but I have'nt seen what the new model looks like. I believe the amp section was located within the cabinet which also housed a horn loaded 18" speaker. The head was for volume and EQ adjustments.

Thanks for the site, gfab333! I also found a pic of the model 136, which was the second amp I owned. It brought back some fond memories of jamming in my garage with my school friends. The poor thing was barely loud enough to keep up with the drummer & guitarist but it was an improvement to my first amp-a 45 watt Vox Pacemaker guitar amp!

Originally posted by Arthur Poon K.O.A., is that the actual pic of your amp? Man, that thing looks like new!

Yep! And thanks! When I spotted it I knew I had to jump. Many miles and a few dollars later she was all mine. Definitely get one. Check out the output tube below. All the tubes are original. That's a Tung-Sol 6550 made the 25th week of 1973. Rock On!

The cool thing about it, is that there's no cable connecting the amp to the cabinet like there is in B-15s and later SB-12s. Those two latches are the only thing connecting the two parts. I think they changed this for safety reasons, but I have yet to be electricuted.

It's a great sounding amp. I've used it on many gigs, and it works fine if the volume is low enough.

Originally posted by RockBobby This was my second amp. (1st was an Essex Bass Combo) I had both cabs. It was louder with 2, but not loud enough for rock. Tone was great, volume was so so. I sold it cheap, Then I got the Acoustic.

Yep, the sound is great, but the volume is only good for jamming or recording with unamplified drums and a 20-30 Watt guitar amp. But, that's actually the best setup for playing and volume level to my ears, so it works out good. I've also got this head if I want to go louder - V4B, shown here with a Fender PS300 4x12:

I used a Traynor Custom Special for years, mostly with a Traynor YC-810 (Big "B") cabinet. But during the early 70's I decided to switch from using 10's to 15's.
So I bought two Traynor YC-215-CV cabinets with two Cerwin-Vega 15" speakers in each and used them for a couple of years. 4 x 15" speakers moved alot of air but didn't give me the tone or definition that I had become acustom to with the 810 cabinet. I went back to my YC-810 and sold the two twin fifteen cabs.
Here's a picture of my rig back in 74 showing the two 2 x 15 Cabs and the Custom Special YBA-3 amp.

Yes, the YC-810 "Big B" cabinet is a sealed cabinet. It's wide and tall but not very deep. It's also quite heavy and originally came with a dolly that affixed with a large butterfly bolt. If I recall correctly original speakers are Marsland and they're still in perfect condition. The cabinet is 4 ohms. The head connects two cabinets in series for a total of 8 ohms, which is the amp's favourite load.

The chrome bumpers date the cabinet as 1971 or later. Two handles per side were only done in 1971. Good power handling and EXTREMELY punchy.
